by Terrance McClurge (Author)
Hence, the messages to the streets. Just as light extinguishes darkness, truth dispels falsehood. The latter cannot find its existence in the presence of the former. Likewise, without effort or any added exertion of energy, that which is real or authentic and governed by law of authenticity will expose the fraudulent. The true intent of the heart is revealed through the reading of the message. Boys (as well as girls) are confronted and challenged to disregard their erroneous preconceived notions of what they were taught with regards to the code of the streets. Also, while no longer being given the opportunity to promote a fictitious to the young and naive, the coward is exposed. These Messages are the embodiment of mother's prayers being asnwered. The most earnest of prayers derived from a need. The need for a mesasge is paramount. But, who is qualified to fulfill this need? If the law of our land is invalid and the code of the streets have been declared null in void. Who is it that has been given the authority to speak? Only those who are the best of what society has deemed to be worst, the true outlaw. The outlaw is not conventional in his methods, and does not live within the confines of popular belief. He is not defined by what others say of him; nor will he allow the actions of another dictate his agenda. He seeks no hand-outs and will create for himself a new reality when the old is no longer sufficient. The only law that he lives to uphold is that of authenticity. Being true to himself and being all the way legitimate with his convictions.
